	Which (or Cygwin -- or even OSX) is best for GPS-compatible
map CDs, especially (if it matters) topo maps? I use Garmin,
DeLorme, MapTech, and MapQuest (mostly) -- and I've got it down at
last to where they're pretty much the last thing still keeping me
from getting to a 100% M$-free household. (I'll be getting an OSX
laptop, probably with Yellow Dog Linux, about next week.)
